We decided to spend our Christmas holidays this year in Palm Desert at the fabulous JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa. Despite the intermittent showers and cloudy weather, mornings were spent on the resort's beautiful 18 hole golf courses, the Palms or the Valley, both designed by Ted Robinson, "King of Waterscapes". In the afternoons we worked out in the fitness club, sweat it out in the steam rooms and sauna, lolled by the pool, and basically zenned out in the Resort's gorgeous spa, the largest of its kind in California. Golf fees were $69 U.S. per person including the cart with state-of-the-art navigational and computing systems; however this fee doubled after Boxing Day. What a great way to end the year! We will definitely return for another Palm Desert Golf Adventure.
